It's probably not 100% accurate. But if you find which CCG covers your area, you can google them, and freestyle libre, and see what their current policy is on it.<a href="https://www.diabetes.org.uk/get_involved/campaigning/flash-glucose-monitoring" target="_blank">https://www.diabetes.org.uk/get_involved/campaigning/flash-glucose-monitoring</a>Hope you are in one of the good areas. I'm lucky I can get it on prescription, and it's been very useful, massively improved my blood sugar control. It did take a few months to get really good, though. You will have a new level of data to use to make decisions with.If your CCG aren't funding it at the moment it's a bit annoying, so feel to write them a letter of complaint. After all NICE recommendations are that people with T1D should aim for an HbA1c of less that 6.5%. It's extremely hard to that without better technology, so it's ridiculous some aren't funding it.</blockquote>
